I have a CSV file with the following columns:
column1, Column2, Column3
A, B, "C,D"
I need to write a macro to :
1. Delete column2
2. Save the CSV file. At the time of saving I need to supress all default messages.
I am trying to write the contents of a worksheet to a notepad file. Also, the worksheet has some hidden columns.
I have a CSV file that contains data in columns A-Q. Some cells may be blank.
I'm having trouble opening this CSV file because when I re-save it after editing it, Excel removes any quotes that were around the data.
Here is the criteria that the data must be formatted like:
If the value in column A = "H", the following columns need quotes around the cell - A-F, H-I, K-M, P-Q. The values in the rest of the columns do not need quotes.
If the value in column A = "D", the following columns need quotes around the cell - A-D, F, I-O, Q. The values in the rest of the columns do not need quotes. Data is only in columns A-Q.
Can somebody write a macro that will format the data as list above and save?
I have a excel sheet with rows and columns. I want to use these values to write a text file.

How to Write a Macro for set a expiry date for Excel 2007 File.
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to write vba code that will generate a text file with ALL changes that were made to an excel file. Ex. If Cell A17 = "Monday, June 4, 2012" and a user updates Cell A17 to "N/A", I would like to know what the value was before and after the udpate was made.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have one cell that contains a function. Sometimes I want to change the value in the cell because the value is used in another function in the sheet.
The problem is that I want the function to reapear in the cell when I press the deletebutton.
Exampel:
1. Cell A1 contains this function.
=Sumproduct((part_number>100)*(Price>10);Stockvalue)
This returns a value that is used in other cells in the sheet.
2. Now I want to try what happens in the other cells if the value in cell A1 is changed.
I select cell A1 and writes the new value that I want to test.
3. If I want the function back I simply should select cell A1 again and press delete.
4. A VBA macro now writes the original formula back into Cell A1.
I have created a macro that saves a file then emails it out through lotus notes..
The problem is that how to i kill/delete the file that i have just made without it prompting me whether i want to or not? Or is there a way of only saving the file temporarily untill the macro has finishing running then it deletes the temporary file?
I have a macro at work that shows which files are duplicates (same name plus file size) it then produces a list of this with 3 fields file path(excluding file), file name and ext, and size. it produces a duplicate of the file for example:
file a
file a
file b
file b
i would like a macro to delete just 1 of theese (as deleteing both would be bad!! haha) and have no idea how to start this. other than going through all 1679 files that have a duplicate.
I have verified that there is data in the worksheet...but while the text file is created and properly closed, nothing is written to it.
Sub ScoresToDeko() 'writes a text file
Dim Scores As String
Dim CRLF As String
Dim count As Integer
Scores = ""
CRLF = Chr$(13) & Chr$(10)
Are there any examples, instead of having MsgBox, but have a log file created ?
So instead of MsgBox, it might be MsgLog
Is there such a thing in VBA ?

Basically I want just one function that returns True for a succesfull write and False in case of an error. Now I have one function and one sub.
Say there is a HTML file at C:DataFile.html
I'd like to use Excel VBA to write this meta tag into that HTML file:
****** http-equiv="refresh" content="600">
That's to make it refresh every 600 seconds.
The most elegant way would be to locate the "head" tag and write it right after it, but the refreshing meta tag seems to work where ever it is, even at the very end of the file after the "/html" tag! So locating the "head" tag is not that important, if it's difficult.
So, how do I use VBA to write lines into a HTML (or any text) file?
The problem with the Write macro was that, although it did work, it used SendKeys which has to be slowed down considerably.
Here is a new version of the Write macro that works as normal. I originally tried to use CDDBControl.dll version 1.2.0.51 which is widely available on the internet but found that I could only get it to change 1 file before crashing Excel.
I have put the READ macro in the next message.

Dim FilesChanged As Integer ' number of files changed

I have a tool that accesses a master sheet. Multiple people use the tool (sort of a user interface).
In some cases I need to write to the Master in which I check to make sure its not read only when the macro opens it (that works fine).
In other cases, like when just pulling information, read only is fine. But, I have not specified read only when I open the master.
Sometimes the users are getting a "File Now Available" with a read-write and cancel option. I do not want them to get this message.
My current universal call to master looks like this: ...
I have a file with multiple tabs of data...lot's of data (each tab has 80,000+ lines and 23 columns...3 are formulas, the rest is imported data). I've brought Excel to it's knees (i.e. crashes). Yes, I'm using 2007.
What I'm trying to do is extract 6 cells of data from every 10th line and write it out to a CSV file with two more pieces of information (same for each line).
What I was doing was creating a separate worksheet for each one to be extracted, parsing out the data, and then copying that data to yet another workbook that was then saved as a CSV.
First, in retrospect, that was a waste of time. Second, the addition of the extra worksheets to do the parsing was crashing Excel due to the extreme size of the workbook.
What I'd like to do is use a macro to do all of this in one swell foop:
1) Prompt me for a file name (or I can put the desired name in a cell and read it from there if that simplifies the code)
2) Open a new text file with that name and ".csv" extension in the same folder as the original workbook
3) Write out the column headers: (Fix, Satellites, Lat, Lon, alt (ft), Date, utc_t, course)
4) Step through each row, looking at the text contents of column B (looks like 22:50:07.100)...if it ends in ".000" do the following:
4a) write "PPS,4," to the open text file
4b) write the cell contents from columns "V", "W", "J", "C", "B", and "L" to the text file in the exact format they appear in the text cell.
The output file should look like (very short example):
Fix,Satellites,Lat,Lon,alt (ft),Date,utc_t,course
PPS,4,30.543203,-86.323328,1419.04,2009/12/17,23:26:22.000,243.95

I am working with Excel 2003. I have a series of spreadsheets generated by my companies database program. For a special project I am trying to work on, I would be able to get my results much much quicker if I could get a macro that would do the following:
The first row is a list of headers. I need the macro to look at each cell below the header, and if any data exists in that column, I need it to delete the entire column. The results I will get will tell me quickly which headers are in certain jobs but are constantly not being used. They are trimming the database at work and this type of macro would help me tremendously.
For now, I have data in Column A to E. I have the first row (A1 to E1) contaning different numbers. I need a macro that delete all collumns that cells (in A1 to E1) contain number 1. Next month, I may have 10 columns (A to J) and I want to run the same macro that delete all columns that A1-J1 containing value of 1. The number of columns changes every month, so I want a macro that work to the last column without the need to specifying that column range.
I was using this, but did not work propery (since It just deletet every other column & have to run it a few times to complete & need to specify column range):
Range(A1:E1).Select For each cell in selection If cell.Value>1 Then
Cell.EntireColumn.Delete End If Next cell
I have a command that opens up another workbook. This workbook is sometimes open on another computer, so that the book opens up on my computer in write-protected mode (shows in the top of the window). Usually, when opening other books through the Excel functionality, a message box appears if the file is open and warns that the file is in use by another user. However, with the code I have at the moment, this is not the case when I try to open with my command. See code below:
Private Sub cmdOpenBook_Click()
'Open book
ChDir "I:DevelopmentSpecialUtvikling"
Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"I:DevelopmentSpecialUtviklingJointApp.xls"
End Sub
Is there any way of displaying a msgbox warning when opening another file through VBA?
I need some VBA code to cycle through each and every folder and file in a given root directory and write the file name string to a cell. (does not need to look at the content of sub-folders only the names of all objects sitting directly under the given root.)
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a macro that reads the content of the columns in an excel file and writes the content of each cell in the column to a row in a text file. Here is the code I am using:

Now my problem is the following: certain rows are merged in the first column of my excel file, such as the following:
050partyId partyIdScheme
member memberScheme
In this case, my macro writes 50 in the first text file, then partyIdmember in the second file and partyIdSchemememberScheme in the third file.
What I want is a white space between the words in my text file, for example: partyId partyIdScheme. How do I modify my macro to do that?
I have recorded (i.e. manually as opposed to writing VBA code) a number of macros to perform a routine, however they do not work when I change the filename.
Could someone please advise on how to edit these macros (which reference a specific filename) so that they work when the file name is changed. The macros copy and paste values from different worksheets and then run another set of macros. However all macros and worksheets are located within one excel file
I need help for reading data from text files and saving it under different columns in the excel file using vba macro.
For example: I have many text files in the following format ....
I'm trying to take the contents of an excel speadsheet and write it to an html file with my own formatting. For example I would like the row:
|32|55|28|
to end up in the html file as:
<tr>
<td class="align-right">32</td>
<td>55</td>
<td class="">28</td>
</tr>
In theory it seemed fairly simple to loop through a sheet and write before and after each cell, but once I tried writing the code I realized I was in way over my head.
In VBA, is it possible to write to a text file, on 1 single line (without carriage return or line feed) the values of a dynamic array? For instance, I have the array:
Dim my(n) As Double 'n is changeable
my(0) = 0
my(1) = 1
my(2) = 2
.....
I want to write to a text file, like this: Write #filename, my(0), my(1), my(2) '..... until my(n) but n is changing
I want them on 1 line, because I use the other direction (up - down) for other things).
Code:
Range("A1,A:A,C:C,E:E,D:D,G:G,H:H,I:I,J:J").Select
Selection.Delete Shift:=xlToLeft
When I wrte a macro as above, i get error "the command cannot be used with selections that contain rows or columns and also other cells. Try selecting only entire rows, columns or just group of cells".
Actually i want delete all columns except B:B and F:F
I am developing some code to extract selected worksheets to a new workbook, and provide the data in a "standalone" form where certain formulas have been converted to values etc. As part of this project, hidden columns are made visible, then data is pasted as values on a row by row basis, then the previously hidden columns are deleted. Here is the code that unhides the columns and identifies those columns as ones that it needs to delete later on:
'Expose hidden columns and keep a list
For i = 1 To 200
Range("a1").Offset(0, i - 1).Select
If ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Hidden = True Then
colnum = ActiveCell.Column
ActiveCell.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
If HideCOL <> "" Then
HideCOL = HideCOL & "," & colnum
Else
HideCOL = colnum
End If
End If
Next
The macro then goes about its business doing this and that, and at the end comes back to delete those offending columns whose numbers have been stored in the variable "HideCOL".
'Delete columns that were hidden
If HideCOL <> "" Then
Dim colArray As Variant .............
